The week will be kicked off by announcing our candidate board, followed by a Cantus hosted by Ius Sanctus! However, the events that will take place on the Thursday are the absolute highlights of the week. Curious what these activities are? Keep reading!

Cantus time

Do you get flashbacks to the Kick-In when hearing the word ‘Cantus’? Did you also experience this as one of the highlights of your introduction week? In that case we have good news for you! On Monday the 30th of April we will organise our very first Cantus hosted by ‘Moresgenootschap Ius Sanctus’! Ius Sanctus is famous for hosting the annual Grolsch Taste Cantus during the Kick-In.

ParticiPizza Lunch

We want to prepare you for an intensive Stress Week, which means that you should eat enough. Therefore, stop by the O&O square on Tuesday the first of May to grab a slice of pizza! The best part is yet to come: the slices are for free!

Tom Coronel

On Wednesday the 2nd of May, Tom Coronel will give a lecture in Waaier 1 and 2. Perhaps his name sounds familiar to you, since he is a former race driver who participated in the Dakar Rally. Besides racing, he is also a successful businessman. He is the founder of many webshops, founder of the social media bureau Booster Media Solutions, E-commerce man of the year 2011 and many more! He will tell something about his entrepreneurship during the lecture. There will not be any entrance fee, so there is no reason why you should not join!

Party @ Bölke

After the lecture of Tom Coronel, it is time to put your dancing shoes on. To make this a night you will never forget we have a special surprise for you: Tess will be joining us at the Bölke! Tess Gaerthe is most famous for her song ‘Stupid’, which she sang at the Junior Song Festival back in 2005. Besides Stupid, she collaborated with Thomas Berger on ‘Stem van mijn hart’. For only 2 euros you can enjoy the biggest party of the year! It is an open party, so bring all your friends!
